21 ounces nicotine
19 ounces cocaine
1 razor
1 straw
2 grams heroine
1 syringe
15 ounces marijuana
1 lighter
22 ounces liquor
55 ounces beer
1 glass
And thus,
the ingredients to my magical potion.
I call it the "Elixir of Joy."
The concoction that makes me happy,
plasters a smile upon my face
up until I pass out,
and even then I get to dream of fun, ridiculous things.

#0067 - "When have I ever given the impression that I am emotionless?"
When have I ever given the impression that I am emotionless?
Is it strange to say that I need not smile to be happy?
Is it strange to say that I need not cry to be sad?
Is it strange to say that I need not sulk to be disappointed?
Is it strange to say that I need not boast to be proud?
Is it strange to say that I need not kiss to love?
Is it strange to say that I need not insult to hate?
Is it strange to say that I need not waste my time to embrace permanence?
Is it strange to say that I need not treasure my time to embrace transience?
Is it strange to say that I need not be opulent to be rich?
Is it strange to say that I need not be destitute to be poor?
When have I ever given the impression that I am emotionless,
Compassionless,
Mindless,
Thoughtless,
Or any other -less when compared to anyone else?

#0042 - "Hush"
Hush, my child.
I know you wish to know why the ocean waves churn in sea shells.
I know you wish to know why the sky is the same color as your eyes.
I know you wish to know why the stars only come out in the nighttime.
I know you wish to know why the end of the rainbow is never ever found.
I know you want to know why some things taste good and some things taste bad.
I know you want to know why some nights you have dreams and some nights you don't.
I know you want to know why some words you're not allowed to say without trouble.
I know you want to know why some people like to hurt or ignore each other.
I know you wonder why we exchange paper instead of simply sharing.
I know you wonder why we are sometimes so afraid of each other.
I know you wonder why we don't dream once we're "old."
I know you wonder why we are all so...strange.
But honestly, my child,
Often I feel that I know even less than you do.
